Instrument Cluster

Im finally getting around to installing my new gauge faces, but I really dont want to screw anything up. My first question before I go any further is after I unscrew the three screws on the trim piece holding the cluster in place, how do I get that trim be to be removed. Do you just pull on it, is there a hidden group of screws, or what?

The 93' style has two screws int he top of the bezel trim. They come out and then pul on the bezel lightly to make sur ethere are no other hidden ones. (I am pretty sure it is only those 2 though) then you can access the 4 screws that hold the instrument cluster in. Pull the cluster out a bit and then reach behind and disconnect the plugs. (kinda hard to reach, but patients is the key) After that the hardest and most critical part is pulling hte needles and making sure you install them facing the exact same way when you are finished. try to find something to grab the back side of the neddles and pull. Fingers will break the needles almost every time, so if you cannot find some sort of tool to use be very careful.
If you happen to break it I have several GS clusters and I'll sell you one if you need. PM or email me, but I hope everything goes well.
